Beautiful day at Gull Lake Resort - West Course
The staff and golf amenities are excellent. The course was in great condition for mid-October. Very challenging course with fast undulating greens. The bunkers were in very good condition and consistent to hit out of.
Good course, not the best Gull Lake has to offer
Both east and west can suffer from swampy conditions after rain, which was what happened to us, I much prefer Stonehedge but West was a great and experience well-maintained. A few holes especially on the back were very spongy.
Nice facilities overall, but I'm not in a rush to play it again.
The grass was long. The fairway needed to be cut, the rough was extra rough, and the greens were well maintained by slow. It has rained a lot lately so I'm sure the grass is growing quickly and contributed to the slow greens. All the tee boxes were nice, even the yellow and red. My partner liked the course but I'm personally not a huge fan of hilly courses, or courses where you can look around and see flags from 3-5 other holes and multiple different fairways. Overall, I'd much rather play the East course. The ranger was friendly and seems up keep things moving, which I appreciated. Food in the clubhouse is excellent and they have beer on tap.
Slow play
Course was in good shape as always. We were the first tee time behind an outing of inexperienced players, so play was painfully slow. Would have been nice to know that. We could have easily taken a later tee time and had a better experience. This course is otherwise usually dependable and in good shape, and is a good value, so we will definitely be back (but will ask about outings when we book!).
